In a compound atoms of element `Y` form ccp lattice and those of element `X` occupy `2//3^(rd)` of tetrahedral voids .The formula of the compound will be

A

`X_(4)Y_(3)`

B

`X_(2)Y_(3)`

C

`X_(2)Y`

D

`X_(3)Y_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a

No. of atoms of `Y=4` `(` for `c.c.p)`
